Understanding methanotroph ecology in a biofilter for efficiently mitigating methane emissions : a thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Soil Science (Biotechnology) at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In New Zealand, the majority of the greenhouse gas (GHG), methane (CH4) emissions are from the agriculture sector (enteric fermentation, manure management) and the remainder from solid waste disposal, coal mining and natural gas leaks.

A four-helix bundle stores copper for methane oxidation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Methane-oxidising bacteria (methanotrophs) require large quantities of copper for the membrane-bound (particulate) methane monooxygenase (pMMO). Certain methanotrophs are also able to switch to using the iron-containing soluble MMO (sMMO) to catalyse ...

Forest health, heart rot disease, and their impact on the source of carbon‐based greenhouse gas fluxes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 921-933, April 2026.
Summary Forest health is critical for sustaining ecosystem services like carbon sequestration. Heart rot, a widespread disease in upland northern hardwood forests, may affect greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes, but its impacts remain poorly measured. Using non‐destructive tomography and direct gas flux measurements, we quantified the effects of heart ...

Methane removal efficiency in biochar-methanotroph-clay landfill cover

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
The landfill is one of the main sources of methane emissions. The landfill cover is at the top of a landfill as an important solution to reduce methane release.

Ammonium Impacts Methane Oxidation and Methanotrophic Community in Freshwater Sediment

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Lacustrine ecosystems are regarded as one of the important natural sources of greenhouse gas methane. Aerobic methane oxidation, carried out by methane-oxidizing bacteria, is a key process regulating methane emission.

Wetland soil history shapes microbial community composition, while hydrologic disturbance alters greenhouse gas fluxes

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract While wetlands represent a small fraction (~5%–10%) of the world's land surface, it is estimated that one‐third of wetlands have been lost due to human activities. Wetland habitat loss decreases ecosystem benefits, including improved water quality and climate change mitigation.

Active Methanotrophs and Their Response to Temperature in Marine Environments: An Experimental Study

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Aerobic methane (CH4) oxidation plays a significant role in marine CH4 consumption. Temperature changes resulting from, for example, global warming, have been suggested to be able to influence methanotrophic communities and their CH4 oxidation capacity ...

Identification of putative methanol dehydrogenase (moxF) structural genes in methylotrophs and cloning of moxF genes from Methylococcus capsulatus bath and Methylomonas albus BG8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
An open-reading-frame fragment of a Methylobacterium sp. strain AM1 gene (moxF) encoding a portion of the methanol dehydrogenase structural protein has been used as a hybridization probe to detect similar sequences in a variety of methylotrophic bacteria.

Thermophilic methanotrophs: in hot pursuit

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2019
ABSTRACTMethane is a potent greenhouse gas responsible for 20–30% of global climate change effects. The global methane budget is ∼500–600 Tg y−1, with the majority of methane produced via microbial processes, including anthropogenic-mediated sources such as ruminant animals, rice fields, sewage treatment facilities and landfills.

Epixylic microbial communities as key regulators of methane emissions from submerged wood in a tropical hydroelectric reservoir

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Tropical hydroelectric reservoirs are recognized hotspots for greenhouse gas emissions, yet the role of submerged forests in these emissions remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the contribution of standing dead trees and their associated epixylic biofilms to methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the ...
